What To Expect
Prepare for an unforgettable adventure starting right from your doorstep in Reykjavík, or join us along the way at popular South Coast locations such as Hveragerði, Selfoss, Hella, or Hvolsvöllur. Our journey begins as we traverse the stunning Hellisheiði Plateau, heading toward the captivating landscapes of Iceland's South Coast.
Along the route, we’ll take a refreshing coffee break at Hvolsvöllur, the perfect spot to fuel up for the excitement ahead.
From there, the expedition leads us to the legendary Þórsmörk (Thorsmork), with an exhilarating stop at Gígjökull, an outlet glacier of the iconic Eyjafjallajökull volcano. Stand at the glacier’s edge and witness the striking aftermath of the historic 2010 eruption that captured the world's attention and disrupted air travel across Europe. This is a front-row seat to the raw power and beauty of Iceland’s natural forces.
But the adventure doesn’t end there. We’ll step into a realm of fantasy at Stakkholtsgjá canyon, a spectacular 2-kilometer-long natural wonder and a filming location for the iconic Game of Thrones series. Surrounded by moss-covered cliffs, you’ll uncover magical waterfalls and caves steeped in Icelandic folklore, with tales of elves and trolls adding to the mystique.
Next, we venture deeper into Þórsmörk, the Valley of Thor, for an adrenaline-pumping ride through rugged terrain in a super jeep. Cross rivers, navigate challenging landscapes, and immerse yourself in the valley’s lush greenery, framed by the imposing glaciers of Mýrdalsjökull, Eyjafjallajökull, and Tindfjallajökull. A haven for hikers and nature lovers, Þórsmörk offers an enchanting contrast of verdant forests against the stark beauty of glaciers and black sand deserts.
As our journey winds down, we’ll uncover one last hidden gem: Nauthúsagil ravine. Wander through a narrow passage shaded by rowan tree canopies and discover an enchanting waterfall, illuminated by soft, otherworldly light.
After a day of extraordinary exploration, we’ll return to Reykjavík, stopping once more in Hvolsvöllur for a well-deserved coffee break before arriving around 6 PM. Join us for an epic adventure through Iceland’s most breathtaking landscapes, where every stop tells a story and every view leaves you in awe.
